Seti has resend lost work on, so if this work isn't on your system the Seti server will send it to you again at a scheduler contact. So that won't be it.

No, I suspect that you just think the work isn't on your system, as BOINC doesn't show it, right? When you go into BOINC Manager->Advanced view->Tasks tab, you only have a couple of running/waiting to run tasks? If so, then click the "Show all tasks" button.

This button shows the option you have, not the status that it's in. So when you see "Show all tasks", it's in the "Show active tasks" mode. Then only those running, waiting to run and suspended are showing. The waiting to start, downloading, uploading and those ready to report will not be showing as they aren't active tasks.

What are your work queue settings?
